Think I Don't Know
I open the window and I see an apple tree
I open it slowly so he doesn't notice me
He's as still as can be, he's just being a tree
And he thinks I don't see what he's thinking
I'd close my shades if I thought it would do any good
He's already figured out my house is made of wood
He's been taking it slow, he's moving on tiptoe
But he's ready to go, and he thinks I don't know
He thinks I don't know
He thinks I don't know
But I know what he thinks
And I'm not telling
The next door neighbor's been watching me for a week or two
She hasn't decided yet just what she's going to do
I just saw her today, she didn't know what to say
I could tell by the way she was silent
She brought me a casserole and it was pretty good
I haven't thanked her yet, I wonder if I should
She's been taking it slow, she's moving on tiptoe
But she's ready to go, and she thinks I don't know
She thinks I don't know
She thinks I don't know
But I know what she thinks
And I'm not telling
I've been watching what I think and I've been watching what I say
Cause they're watching what I do and that's the way it's going to stay
I guess I've gotten used to it but it's still tough on me
Cause sometimes I want to do things I don't want no one to see
I so you looking at me just a moment ago
You've got a friend that you tell everything you know
Go ahead take a look, write it down in your book
I saw the pictures you took in the drugstore
I'm waiting patiently for you to make your move
I know you're ready, you've got nothing left to prove
You've been taking it slow, you're moving on tiptoe
But you're ready to go, and you think I don't know
You think I don't know
You think I don't know
But I know what you think
You think I'm a crackpot
Creo que no sé
Abro la ventana y veo un manzano
Lo abro lentamente para que no me note
Está tan quieto como puede ser, solo está siendo un árbol
Y cree que no veo lo que está pensando
Cerraría mis persianas si pensara que serviría de algo
Ya ha descubierto que mi casa está hecha de madera
Ha estado yendo despacio, moviéndose de puntillas
Pero está listo para irse, y cree que no sé
Cree que no sé
Cree que no sé
Pero sé lo que piensa
Y no lo diré
La vecina de al lado me ha estado observando por una semana o dos
Todavía no ha decidido qué va a hacer
La vi hoy, no sabía qué decir
Pude notarlo por su silencio
Me trajo un guiso y estaba bastante bueno
Todavía no le he agradecido, me pregunto si debería
Ha estado yendo despacio, moviéndose de puntillas
Pero está lista para irse, y cree que no sé
Cree que no sé
Cree que no sé
Pero sé lo que piensa
Y no lo diré
He estado vigilando lo que pienso y lo que digo
Porque están observando lo que hago y así se va a quedar
Supongo que me he acostumbrado, pero aún me resulta difícil
Porque a veces quiero hacer cosas que no quiero que nadie vea
Te vi mirándome hace un momento
Tienes un amigo al que le cuentas todo lo que sabes
Adelante, echa un vistazo, escríbelo en tu libro
Vi las fotos que tomaste en la farmacia
Estoy esperando pacientemente a que hagas tu movimiento
Sé que estás listo, no tienes nada más que demostrar
Has estado yendo despacio, moviéndote de puntillas
Pero estás listo para irte, y crees que no sé
Crees que no sé
Crees que no sé
Pero sé lo que piensas
Piensas que estoy loco
